    Lovely courtyard only for guests to the hotel casa Antonieta
    Daisy A.

    I didn't realize there's outdoor seating. There's this hidden door ( well hidden to me because I couldn't see it. It's a tad bit romantic in there with low lit lighting.) it's really beautiful I tried to sit out there but was not allowed. It is for guest to the hotel. I had no idea it was part of a hotel. Gorgeous building. That hidden door makes sense. Mostly tourist, a few pretentious folk making me smile. I feel like if I don't look up I could be back at home in echo park. There is a local getting some work done on his laptop next to me. Small place, you could sit at the bar , there's 5 wooden stools. Now to the coffee. I had a single cappuccino with oatmilk. Strong and delicious coffee. It makes me not want to try other coffee shops but I must compare! You'll find goat milk yogurt here and chia pudding which I need before I venture off to my temazcal. Good coffee and grateful for light breakfast items items that are good for my sensitive gut. I asked and the coffee beans are legit from Oaxaca roasted from a place called San Juan cacahuatepec.

    Had a nice time grabbing breakfast here. The croissant was super crispy and the hot sauce it came with was great.

    Great food, great service, great ambiance. Had to wait a little bit for the food, but I guess because of the holiday it's expected. Small place but it's worth it.

    This is a cozy little café, where you can get delicious coffee, and some snacks. I ordered a sandwich. The flavors were good, but I'm not a fan of olives. The service was good as well.

    This is a neat hipster type of cafe right in the middle of downtown Oaxaca. I came here as I was walking around waiting for my bus to leave at 11pm. The cafe is original and designed very nicely with oak floors and tables. The bench seat was comfortable, and I needed it after walking around for hours. They had limited pastry options basically chocolate fudge brownies and banana cake. The panqué de plátano for sure had fewer calories, and I also ordered a large cappuccino to go with it. The prices here were pretty much in line with other places in Mexico City. The Server told me that they do have WiFi however I didn't see any outlets to plug in my laptop. Yes my battery has become shot. I think this is a great cafe for the traveler who doesn't plan on staying too long. The employee who helped me was awesome as well.

    Didn't take a picture of my green detox and baguette Serrano ham and mozzarella because I was in a rush but they both were delicious. I asked for a spicy sauce and they gave me a matcha peanut spicy sauce (so good). Loved the space and wished I had brought my laptop to work from there. The staff was super friendly!

    Macha, Egg Sandwich, BLT, and Latte.

    This was our first breakfast spot we visited and happy it was. Mar made our experience great! We ordered from breakfast sandwiches, coffees, juices, and yogurts/puddings - everything was delicious.

    Amazing rooftop for coffee and breakfast. Gorgeous views. Striking greenery. Delicious drinks. Friendly service. Super enjoyed my smoothie bowl and iced mocha. My friends delighted in their drinks as well.

    Chia pudding
    Eve V.

    Nice spot for coffee and breakfast. I had the chia pudding which was beautiful and very filling, and a regular latte, and my bf had the pan Frances ( french toast) and Respiratirio tea (I messed that up), which was really good Anna reminiscent of a medicine ball to aid your cold/flu symptoms. Food was tasty and very healthy feeling and the latte and tea were just as expected. Service was good, some English is spoken if your Spanish is limited. The little shop is cute but the patio is beautiful. Unfortunately you don't get access to that unless you're a guest of the hotel, at least that was add our experience. Also, for every spot we went you have to ask for the check or pay at the counter. They don't bring the check to you.

    Ask for the rooftop café, it's amazing. Great service, and prices, good coffee. The huevos dishes are very tasty.

    My friend, who is an expert at finding cute coffee shops, found Cafe Muss. We came here twice on our trip. This little coffee shop has a beautiful rooftop oasis. Let's get down to the nitty gritty. I enjoyed the mocha on both trip and it feels like there's authentic chocolate. It offers a nice little punch. The fruit bowl is decent and the breakfast sandwich is good. I definitely recommend coming here to check out the roof top spot.

    5 Star Deliciousness, it was the perfect stop to relax after flying all night & we stopped here on way before flying heading back home to Los Angeles. Very fresh , ambiance beyond expectations with great healthy choices. The orange boost and red boost very good. Just what we needed to keep our immune system strong while traveling.

    Terrace view

    This is my fourth time coming to Muss. I love coming here becuase the service is great, it's a cute spot to have some drinks with friends, and the food is yummy. I love going to sit on the third floor terrace. I am giving it 4 stars becuase on my recent visit one of my favorite drinks did not have the same taste. Every time I ordered it it tasted different. But other than that if you are visiting Oaxaca or need a cute spot to hang I would recommend Muss.

    What a gem

    I journey from Los Angeles to Long Beach just for their matcha latte. Nobody does it better, and the staff at the counter are super cool.

    Great food and coffee. If you're in Oaxaca, this is a good place to stop for breakfast or a coffee.

    Sabina Sabe is a popular restaurant and bar located in the city center of Oaxaca. It was recently…read moreon the list of North America's 50 Best Bars. I thought it was funny when I got the menu and the food menu was only one page while the drink menu was five pages. The outside of the restaurant is blue-ish and the restaurant has multiple rooms. The ceviche del dia ($190 MXN) was a little sweet and not as tart or sour as others I've had. The tacos de sirloin ($170) were really good and were our group's favorite. The taquitos dorados de mole negro ($140) were okay; there was no meat just in case you were wondering. The aguachile rojo de camaron ($190) were good. The esquite con tuetano ($100) was not like a typical corn in a cup but it was closer to a corn soup. For drinks I had the pequeño gigante ($210) which was good. The paloma madura and paloma margarita were both favorites among our group. We went during the day and it wasn't that busy but supposedly it gets way busier and livelier at night.

    I came here for the renowned drinks but also ended up loving their food! It's a super cute spot…read morewith tiles and open balcony doors. We were able to get a seat right away and the servers were super helpful. My friend wanted to try some mezcal and they let us taste a couple before choosing. We sat at the restaurant instead of the bar because it was cuter and I wanted food too. I tried two of their fruity mezcal drinks and loved both. I forget the names but one had watermelon, and the other had coconut and lime. I ordered cheese stuffed plantains with mole and this was soooo good. It was very filling too!
